They also missed out on Matthew Stafford, Carson Wentz, and even failed with a bid for Russell Wilson this summer. With only Nick Foles and Andy Dalton left on their roster, the Bears could be in the mix for a young quarterback in 2021.
The 22-year-old youngster is also reportedly of interest to coach Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots. Jones has been labeled as the ideal ‘system quarterback’ and is highly rated in terms of his work-rate and passion for the game.
